Wood floor repair in Orton

Wood floor repair in Orton without replacing anything

We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Our technicians work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and laminate flooring, and people most often call us about gouges from moving appliances and burns.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

What affects the price in Orton

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The material
  • How much damage there is

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Orton questions

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do you cover the entire of Peterborough?

We cover the entire UK, including Orton and the rest of Peterborough. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

10 questions to ask before booking

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
